But you seem to know your danger, and I suppose you have been warned." "Yes, Grammont warned me.

He is a very adroit person and is my friend.
He stands guard for me at court, partly because he is my friend, but chiefly, I imagine, because it is the command of his king, Louis of France.

I do not want to bring Baron Ned into trouble.

He is known to be my friend, and the king might have him watched, so I am using Grammont as my spy at Whitehall." "Ah, the Frenchman ?" returned Frances.

"It was he who dubbed me the 'Duchess of Hearts.' He smiles graciously when we meet, but with all we hear about the wickedness of the French, Grammont has shown me greater respect than I have had from any one of the so-called gallants about the court." "The day may come when I can repay his kindness," said Hamilton.
"But you must leave England at once," continued Frances.
